in the UK we would say “bang to rights” – BANG TO RIGHTS! ‘A fair cop’–a justifiable arest for an obvious crime; underworld, since before 1930. Hence, a police and London’s East End catchphrase by 1935 at latest, and a fairly general slangy catchphrase since c. 1950.

“Dead to rights” means that someone has been caught red handed…no way of explaining or reasoning out of a situation.
